The announcement was reportedly made by ABC News President, Kim Godwin during a morning editorial call on Monday. She called that relationship an “internal and external distraction.”
Godwin said, “I want to say that while that relationship is not a violation of company policy, I have really taken the last few days to think about and work through what I think is best for the ABC News organization.
In conclusion, she said, “If you think there is something that management needs to know, you can always call HR or, as we’ve said, talk to a manager that you trust. If you think there is something that we need to know.”

Although both hosts are separated, Holmes is still legally married to attorney Marilee Fiebig, while Robach is still married to Melrose Place actor Andrew Shue.

According to sources, executives at the network knew of the impending news. The New York Post reported that the executives at the network met after the affair was revealed and told staffers from the show to continue as if nothing happened.
